Integrate wireless networking options

- [Instructor] We have seen the examples of how to make different networking technologies work together. There are several typical integration options we can consider. The first option is integrating two or more different LoWPANs together so that we can have a ZigBee plus 6LoWPAN network, an EnOcean plus ZigBee network, or a Bluetooth low energy plus ZigBee network. The second option is integrating different LoWPANs and low power WANs together. For example, we can have a ZigBee plus LoRa network. The third option is integrating different low power WANs together. For example, we can have a LoRa plus LTE-M network. The last option is integrating LoWPANs or low power WANs that connected to a regular local area networks, or wide area networks, into one network. For example, we can have a ZigBee plus Wi-Fi network, a 6LoWPAN plus ethernet network or a LoRa plus a GSM or 4G network. In this case the router or gateway needs to have low power wireless radio modules and local area network or…
